Historical novel and philatelic thriller, "The mysteries of Zara"
by Alessandro Moro with its well thought-out narrative structure,
compelling in the intertwining of love and war, punctual in the
topographical and historical setting, deceives the reader: nobody,
nothing is as it appears . Even "the good hero" has his ghosts and,
despite the scattered clues, the ending is surprising. To make the
plot even more attractive for collectors, concrete references to
their families, such as those of the Trieste trader Sfiligoi, the
Scaligerian Nicodem, or the Venetian Degani.
Winter 1943-44, eastern coast of the Adriatic. At the height of the
Second World War, the historical tragedy of Zadar is consummated.
The Italian enclave is subjected to German occupation, suffers the
attempts of annexation by the Tito partisans, is exhausted by the
exhausting bombings of the Allies. In an atmosphere of "Twilight of
the Gods" strange crimes are perpetrated, investigated by
Lieutenant of the Carabinieri Umberto Favaretto. In the background
are the rare Italian stamps overprinted by the Germans “Deutsche
Besetzung Zara”, the real protagonists of the story.
by Alessandro Moro.
